Inventor: KEOHANE DENIS J
IPC: G06Q30/06
Filed: 2001-01-19
Abstract: A fuel dispensing system (100 facilitates lottery ticket transactions in a fuelling
forecourt (110) by permitting the purchase of lottery tickets at a fuel dispenser (122). In
the system, customers pay for lottery tickets through the fuel dispenser payment acceptors
(318, 320) in conjunction with fuel purchases. The lottery ticket dispensers (324) may be
integrated within the individual fuel dispensers, or may be apart from the fuel dispensers.
Combining lottery ticket purchases with fuel purchases encourages the purchasing of fuel
and, additionally helps minimise in-store queues associated with lottery ticket purchasing.

Abstract: A plurality of robots are positioned on a rotatable table for
transporting parts to be processed through a plurality of work stations
positioned around the periphery of the table. Each robot can carry a
workpiece from one work station to the next. The rotation of the table moves
the robot from one workstation to the next while carrying a part to be
processed. Each robot can be independently movable relative to the other
robots and each robot can be independently movable relative to the table.
Each robot can include a welder for processing the workpiece independent
of the workstation or during movement between work stations. Each robot
can carry a plurality of differently configured workpieces between the work
stations.

Abstract: The invention concerns an installation for making nonwoven webs whereof the cohesion is obtained by the action of fluid jets. Said installation comprises two perforated rolls (3, 6) associated with injectors (4, 5, 7, 8) producing jets acting against the surface of the web (N). The invention is characterised in that the treated web is delivered: either on a conveyor belt (10) supported by four guide rollers (20, 21, 22, 23), the two upper rollers (20, 21) defining a plane inclined downwards, the entrance zone (20) being arranged substantially at the horizontal plane tangent to the upper perforated roll (6) and the web of material being subjected to the action of a dead roll (18) enabling it to be tensioned about the upper roll (6) to prevent the material from being lifted during the action of the last series of water jets; or on a receiving fabric (17) which follows the path so that it is supported not only on said guide rollers (20, 21, 22, 23), but also around the upper roll (6) for water jet treatment, the intermediate dead roll (18) being in that case retracted to be located at a higher level above the path of said fabric (17).

Abstract: L'invention concerne une interface optique utilisée entre des cartes à circuits, et plus particulièrement entre les parcours optiques d'une carte à circuit et d'une carte mère, et fabriquée par technologie de micro-usinage de masse de silicium. Les composants de silicium de l'interface sont gravés chimiquement et produits en masse à un coût réduit, et permettent d'obtenir un degré plus élevé d'exactitude et de précision que dans les interfaces produites de façon mécanique. L'utilisation de la technologie de micro-usinage pour fabriquer des composants d'accouplement d'une interface rend possible l'utilisation de dimensions ne pouvant être utilisées dans les techniques d'usinage conventionnelles. L'interface obtenue comprend une paire de substrats de silicium micro-usinés destinés à être montés sur une paire de cartes à circuits, chacun des substrat comprenant des caractéristiques repères, crans ou cavités destinés à être alignés avec l'autre substrat et permettant ainsi d'aligner les deux cartes à circuits. Une fibre optique peut être montée sur le parcours optique d'une première carte à circuit. Le substrat de silicium monté sur une seconde carte à circuit comprend une cavité gravée chimiquement destinée à une lentille sphérique, cette cavité étant alignée avec les autres caractéristiques repère, crans ou cavités gravés, et ainsi alignée avec le parcours optique de la première carte à circuit. L'interface comprend également des pivots d'alignement, qui peuvent être des lentilles sphériques, dans des cavités micro-usinées des substrats, permettant d'obtenir un auto-alignement des substrats et, par conséquent, des cartes à circuits.
